UT Austin Dorms Ranked

"Kins is a great place to live if you’re engineering! It’s right down the street and super convenient to come back after classes to eat, maybe take a nap, then head out again for work. The study rooms get filled up quickly and there’s not a whole lot of space, but they get the job done. Never had any issues with noise or other residents, and everyone is super sweet. "

"Pros: - Close to Jester and food hall - Very tightknit and fun community - Not too crowded, with nice study areas Cons: - No mirror in dorm room - No sink in dorm room"

"Lived on the first floor so it lowered my rating a bit. At night people would walk through the hallway and it can get pretty loud. Other than that it was pretty good living here because of the location and overall environment."

"To me Andrews Dorm Was neck and neck with Carothers in terms of quality in the honors quad. The bathrooms are cleaned daily and generally empty whenever you shower. I didn't really like how the floors are divided by gender but it's whatever. Try not to live on the first floor as it's a major thoroughfare and can be loud at times at night. I also don't really recommend living here if your honors program is small, as most people tend to make friends with just people in their same program."

"The dorm is the newest on campus and pretty modern. Facilities are nice and include study lounges/vending machines on every floor, a mini-fitness center + game room, and a nice formal lounge + outdoor courtyard. The dorm allows you to scan your ID to enter your room rather than use a physical key which is a huge timesaver. The rooms have individual AC units and are larger in space relative to the other dorms on campus. It's also closeby to Kins (superior dining hall) and Guad (In And Out, Halal Bros, etc). The only downside is that the dorm is the northernmost building on campus so it can be quite a walk to get to your classes. This is only noticeably a hassle in the scorching hot summer, otherwise, the walk is enjoyable. "

"Great location. Get to dining hall faster than people in Jester. Great windows with lots of light. Built in wooden cabinets. No elevator. Laundry in basement. Loved living here. Much better than honors, Jester, Kinsolving, and LLC rooms."

"VERY CLOSE TO BUSINESS SCHOOL. Literally all you need is in a >5 min walk. (PCL, JCL, J2 Market, Mccombs). Bathrooms are clean, spacious dorms, and pretty quiet. Only issue is that its pretty far from Wampus and North campus so you might walk a lot. But being next to speedway means you get lots of free stuff. I got 24 t-shirts."

"The dorm gave me a great introduction to UT, bathroom would be cleaned twice a day so the communal was pretty great for me. People were friendly and helpful to adjust to college living."

"Great place to meet people your freshman year. Also you get unlimited food so that’s a huge plus.!!!"

"San Jacinto Hall is the most expensive dorm on campus (tied with Duren hall in North Campus). That being said, it is also one of two dorms at UT that solely offers private bathrooms. The bathrooms themselves aren't very modern and are stand-in showers only. The rooms are very spacious in comparison to other on-campus dorms. The laundry room offers about 20-30 washers and driers which is a plus (albeit only located in the South Tower). San Jacinto also houses one of the best on-campus cafes and convenience stores. There's also many study spots throughout the building and is located near the DKR stadium and very close to Speedway."
